Thanks for the comment! Doesn't it feel wonderful!!!!

Hi there! No I didn't get my band through Kaiser. My BMI wasn't high enough (38) and I had no co-morbids. I originally scheduled to self-pay with a place up here for $17k but the more I read these boards the more I started looking into Mexico as an option. I ended up with Dr. Aceves in Mexicali for $7k and very happy with the experience. So, sorry I couldn't help you with your question!

Thanks for the compliment! I bet you're looking forward to your band date! Enjoy!!

Thanks so much for the compliment!!!

Thanks for the compliment!! You seem to be doing a great job yourself! Isn't it wonderful?

Hi, thanks for the comment! I was banded on 12-27-08 so just shy of 4 months. Now I need to get the exercise going!!!!

Thanks!

Congratulations on your success! Thank you for yelling at me (yes I took it personal, hehe) to get off my fat ass and move. I might actually try it this weekend!!!

Hi there! Thanks for leaving a message. I'm doing OK. Could be doing better if I got off my ass to excercise! HA You're doing great!! Don't be discouraged by the "not losing" moments, I know it sucks but we will get through it!!

Was just admiring your pictures, what made you decide to ditch the goatee?

Thank you!

Hi there, I was just wondering how long you took to get back to training after the surgery. I've had the pleasure of training with the Gracie's in Torrance, CA (Rorion, Ryron, and Rener) but never was consistant because I was just too fat! Does it bother your port sight at all? Do you feel it? Thanks! AND Congratulations on your success so far!!

Thanks for the message! Actually, my surgery was changed to the 27th. I can't believe how excited and scared I am at the same time! Thanks much for your support.
